The relationship between health sector
reform and the human resources issues raised in that process
has been highlighted in several studies. These studies have
focused on how new processes have modified the ways in which
the health workers interact. However, few studies have paid
enough attention to the ways in which workers have
influenced the reforms. The impact of health sector reform
has modified critical aspects of the health workforce,
including labor conditions, degree of decentralization of
management, required skills and the entire system of wages
and incentives. Human resources in health, crucial as they
are in implementing changes in the delivery system, have had
their voice heard in many subtle and open ways, reacting to
transformations, supporting, blocking and distorting the
proposed ways of action. This work reviews the evidence on
how the individual or collective actions of human resources
are shaping health reforms, highlighting the reform process,
workforce reactions and the factors determining successful
human resources participation. It attempts to provide a more
powerful way of predicting the effects and interactions of
different "technical designs" when they interact
with the human resources they affect. The article describes
the dialectic nature of the relationship between the
objectives and strategies of reforms and the objectives and
strategies of those that have to implement them. |
